“It is incumbent upon everyone to aid those daysprings of authority and sources of command who are adorned with the ornamant of equity and justice.”

Thus hath it been sent down from the heaven of the Will of your Lord, the Lord of Revelation.

O Son of Spirit! My first counsel is this: Possess a pure, kindly and radiant heart, that thine may be a sovereignty ancient, imperishable and everlasting.

Dedicate the precious days of your lives to the betterment of the world

I bear witness, O my God, that Thou hast created me to know Thee and to worship Thee. I testify, at this moment, to my powerlessness and to Thy might, to my poverty and to Thy wealth. There is none other God but Thee, the Help in Peril, the Self-Subsisting.

Should prosperity befall thee, rejoice not, and should abasement come upon thee, grieve not, for both shall pass away and be no more.

A kindly tongue is the lodestone of the hearts of men. It is the bread of the spirit, it clotheth the words with meaning, it is the fountain of the light of wisdom and understanding…

O SON OF MAN! My calamity is My providence, outwardly it is fire and vengeance, but inwardly it is light and mercy. Hasten thereunto that thou mayest become an eternal light and an immortal spirit. This is My command unto thee, do thou observe it.

Holy words and pure and goodly deeds ascend unto the heaven of celestial glory.

The world’s equilibrium hath been upset through the vibrating influence of this most great, this new World Order. Mankind’s ordered life hath been revolutionized through the agency of this unique, this wondrous System – the like of which mortal eyes have never witnessed.

Be anxiously concerned with the needs of the age ye live in, and center your deliberations on its exigencies and requirements.

Do not be content with showing friendship in words alone, let your heart burn with loving kindness for all who may cross your path.

The utterance of God is a lamp, whose light is these words: Ye are the fruits of one tree, and the leaves of one branch. Deal ye one with another with the utmost love and harmony… So powerful is the light of unity that it can illuminate the whole earth.

Every age hath its own problem, and every soul its particular aspiration.

Religion without science is superstition. Science without religion is materialism.

It is not for him to pride himself who loveth his own country, but rather for him who loveth the whole world.

O ye rich ones on earth! The poor in your midst are My trust; guard ye My trust, and be not intent only on your own ease.

We’re looking at the singular condition of poverty. All the other individual problems spring from that condition… doesn’t matter if it’s death, aid, trade, AIDS, famine, instability, governance, corruption or war. All of that is poverty.

An army should always be so distributed that its parts can aid each other and combine to produce the maximum possible concentration of force at one place, while the minimum force necessary is used elsewhere to prepare the success of the concentration.

I enjoy being the messenger for God in terms of letting people know about HIV and AIDS.

You can’t get AIDS from a hug or a handshake or a meal with a friend.

I found out that a person named Elizabeth Frazier was living with AIDS at the time, and so I called her up, and she took a meeting with me.

I felt like calling attention to AIDS. I had the AIDS ribbon colored into my hair during the playoffs in ’95.
